In the year 1S6G I was quartered it Windsor, a little township about ;wenty-five miles distant from Syd iey, the metropolis of the country, md for some months I had been en gaged in the arduous and by no mean? -omantic duty of buqtipg fpr JiU?iJ stills, of which it was supposed there reese several in the-neighborhood. ,1'certainly did mv-best to discover ?eir'whereabouta, buteras complete ly unsuccessful, and after traversing the country day after day, in every kind of disguise, until I must have traveled hundreds ot miles, I at last gave the matter up as a bad job.

She was too frightened to walk home and so I accompanied her, was in troduced t?o her ' par?ots. es a matter of course, and they were profuse in ?heir thanks'/and ' begged me ' hence forth to look upon their house ns my homo, and so forth. -.

" Aye, verily, I will on my wc of honor, Mr. Rush. But you ta of impossibilities, he added. " Wu? are you going to realise a sudd fortune ?" Ah ! where was I ? My heart sai -as I asked myself the question, ai I followed the old man into the kite en in almost heartbroken silence, bright fire was burning on the heart for grates are still very rare in Au tralia-in fact, they would be ii adapted for the logs of red gum woi that form the invariable fnel. Presently the gi a. ee&jind the pip; were laid on the table, and I did n best to rekindle hope within u breast by the aid of Holland's ar. Barrett's twi-t, but it was no good.

Suddenly, however, there broke upo our ears the dashing open of a gat< and a man's voice shouting : H.

Then we heard, thja ? splash,, splasl .splash of horses" feet, as the warnirij visitor rode away. . . " Water out ! Impossible 1" 'mut tered the old farmer. ".

The rest hkd better get up stairs-or, if possible, on the roof-and with the first peep of dawn I'll send a boat to bting you off. Now, who am I to take charge of?" I was very much afraid he would bid me-take the old lady, bat to my great relief both the parents cried out: .?*?'-? "Save Gertrude?" I lost no time in acting, j, fiW down the four steps that led to the garden^ ?nd with the water above my Napoleon boots, made my way to the ' stable.

Often I iur?ed1 my : head1 ?peak to Her a few words of encour agement abd hope, but I was ido anx ious to secure.he;1.safety and my own to say much.' . She was warmly wrapped,, up, in shawls, and' wraps,, and as she was an excellent horsewoman, I bad no fear was blowing hard enough to .ytrhirl her from ber'seat. Before we bad got more than a mile .from.the .farm^. : the jain,' .reQ?jn. m enc ed with re doubl ed.Ju ry, And in a few.momentipwe were'wet tbrp'ugh. F/ThgF wind, jbooi grew $r$n a f;afi.to a hurricane, and amid the continuous j .roar of 'the' thunder and flash of the pale lighting through the air, we now and then heard *a mighty crash, and some aged monarch of the plain fell prone upon the earth. ?^Suddttily a flash of, lighting, dart e&i^?in^ront fefj^tyij fcyf?, and with a snort of fear, ne reared nearly RprfebVi/j " Hold fast, Gertrude !" I cried, endeavoring to throw my right arin around. her to keep her from slipping ! off. I was too late-she had fallen. I heard a splash in the water, a cry, and the darkness hid her from my sight. Jost, however, as I was about to give way to despair, another flash revealed .her to be standing amid 'the flood, and not a dozen yards dis tance. I spurred toward her, and pres ently she was again on Carlo's broad back. The excitement of t?is event, and the turning of my horse, round and round, bad made me forget the prop er direction to the town, so that we now rode on not knowing whither we were heading. -. Meanwhile, the flood grew deeper | each moment, and presently I discov ered that Carlo was swimming. I had not felt fear .until now ; but I must say that whichever way I guided my cTi?rgeT heT??TirOffjrto?cn^^ I knew that, v.-eighted as he was, he could not keep afloat for long, and each moment ne seemed to sink deep er and deeper in the water. At this critical juncture of affairs the moon shone out again, and light ed tip'the scene" as thoughit had been broad daylight. Far as the^eye could reach,-not a .speck- of dry' land was i ipw '^eible-;- Sut.- to my great, j oy, I r^rcei,Ved'( close by, a bluegum tree, xvlioTfi?in?dghs were so disposed as to be easily scaled. " Do yon ,thiqk;:yon'can climb .that I tree, Gertrude?" I asked. 'Mt IB\ our only chance of preserving our j lives now." ..'J3&e answered feebly in the.affirma tiyei and wjth some little difficulty I eW8m- Carlo alongside. Under the tree-?Ai regained" bis footing, and" I was glad of this, as he was enabled to stand steady for my poor little companion to climb into the branches from his back. When she had accomplished this feat, I took off his bridle, so that he should not catch his feet in it, if be bad to swim for his life, and then Gertrude and I got some twenty-feet j higher up in the blue-gum, and paus ed to rest. Shawls and wraps had long ago fallen off her and been lost, and now poor Gertrude was exposed to all the inclemency of the weather, in the low-necked, short-sleeved dress she had worn during the evening. How her plump, white, and' beau tifully moulded arms, were scratched by the rough tree bark in ' climbing, and as the rain poured down thronen the unprotecting yexticiil 'foliage, the .drops glittered oh lief polished shoul ders, und trickled down her pl?njp, snowy bosom. . . .. M Why, Gertrude, you look a veri table Undine," I .said; arid," having no cape or overcoat io protect her, I doffed my uniform and made her put it on. We then sat side by side, and put-, ting my a^j&rp^n^ her ne$c, I told her all about my interview with her father'that evening. f ' ' ' " And did papa say that when you were as rich as himself he r?ould let me marry you, .Wallie?" she asked " Yes, Gertrude, he -gave me his word of honor to. that eff?ct;" I re sponded.

Just a year ago the northeast side of the public square was laid in ashes, and in No- : vember last Granite Range, one of I the finest blocks of business houses in the State, was burned, to the ground. The third fire broke out on Monday night, and has destroyed six fine stores. lt is hard for any people to keep up their courage in the fae? of so many reverseSi. but the citizens of Abbeville come'bf j^ooS stock, and no siege 'of: troubles-can lo ag .dye ra wk them. They have the hearty sympa thy of^tkeii ^ellow-c^V?en^^thejo?ae so, because the conflagration in Ab beville, like wac in Ki'ngstree, is. the. w?rk of the incendiary.'. A short shrift ind a long rope is what an in cendiary deserves.
